    There was a dumb (Being a former blonde, I refuse to say blonde!) who was driving around for hours looking for a parking space. She decided the only way was to pray for one, so she looked up to the sky and said, "Dear Lord, if you'll only find me a parking place, I will give up swearing, drinking, smoking, sex with my neighbor's husband, and all of my other bad habits. Amen"

    She was totally amazed when she turned the next corner and there was a parking space! She again looked skyward and said, "Never mind, Lord --- I found one."

    (This one is too dumb to sign my name!)
    Stay safe

        *Diagnosed with severe IC in 2004
        *Also diagnosed with PFD, fibromyalgia, chronic myofascial pain, IBS, migraines, allergies/asthma, dermatographism
        *Kept trying a million different treatments for all these things until I found what works, and I am doing okay these days with the help of a cocktail of medications and the InterStim, which was first placed in 2007. [I have had 2 revisions - one in 2010 when my battery died and had to be replaced, and one complete replacement (lead and generator) in 2012 after a fall on my stairs caused my lead to move.]
        *Current meds include Atarax (50mg at night), Lyrica (150mg twice a day), Xanax (0.5mg at night and as needed), Zanaflex (4mg at night), hydrocodone (10/325, every 6 hours as needed), Advair, Nasonex, Singulair (10mg at night), oral contraceptives, home instills containing Elmiron and Marcaine (as often as I need to do them).

            04/17/09 Crohn's disease almost killed me with a combo of extreme constipation from pain medications. My bowel ruptured, I almost died from peritonitis and spent several days in the ICU then more in a private room on the floor. If you have any questions about severe constipation from pain meds please don't hesitate to send me a message.

                There was this preacher and he was furious because someone was spreading rumors that he was a member of the KKK

                After several demands directed at his congregation, a girl with “specific” hair color stood up and said:

                I never said you were in the KKK I just said you were a wizard under the sheets.
